Copy to Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} PN.{Mr Northey} By.Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}EP.{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}/EV.{Ivan Evernden - coachwork} Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}7/E5.9.32 Thanks for Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.5/KT.2.9.32. This report on heat in the driving compartment is very interesting. I am going into the matter closely with our people here who deal mostly with carriage bodies and will probably be communicating with you again. I imagine that a good deal of what you say also affects 20/25's which suffer just as badly from the same trouble. Sg.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} [Stamp: RECEIVED 1932 SEP 8] | ||
